Thanks for the link Poppy, been wondering if something would pop up on the Guardian at somepoint.
I haven't read the article/comments yet, but I regularly 'entertain' myself at work reading articles on the Guardian website. Some of the comments leave me despairing and infuriated, though after reading a few, you can see it's the same people most of the time making ridiculous and offensive comments.

Great article
I think Ofcom had 11 complaints, I don't think we know how many the BBC had...such a shame that there were any complaints
But the BBC made a point of mentioning in their statement that they had received a lot of praise for the scene too which is brilliant ”

ooh right, thank you
BIB I loved that, I really liked the BBC's response to it but sad that they had enough complaints to make them give a response

If the spoilers,and indeed the DS soap site are to be believed,we are to expect some of the most explicit and raunchy sexual scenes from the Max/Tanya affair.
If the BBC feel it,s okay to show stuff like this pre-watershed,the furore over the Chryed bed sceen becomes laughable.
I do hope those viewers who moaned about that will moan just as loudly when these are screened.I sometimes think reson will never prevail,but that doesn,t mean you shouldn,t even try.

that is the general rule for media complaints. If 1 person picked up the phone to call in, there were 1000 at home agreeing with them.

Does sounds just like a Chryedian!!
Great article This quote you mentioned in particular....
Quote:
“It's time this was acknowledged. The "I'm not a homophobe but … " mantra – a predominant piece of nonsense spouted in response to homosexuality (and funnily enough, the opening line of the chosen POV complaint) – can still seemingly leave the mouth without many blushing or feeling any sensation close to shame.”

The "I'm not a homophobe but" line nearly always leads to a clearly homophobic remark!!!
Such a shame that the BBC recived complaints...but I hope the praise they received outweighed the complaints The BBC were totally right to show the beautiful, romantic bed scene...it was not sexually explicit and therefore was completely appropriate for pre-watershed
Right, in my own little defiance.. I'm off to re watch the bed scene!!!!
It's a homospectacular scene!!!
Love has prevailed

The bed scene is beautiful and homospectacular and shows two characters utterly in love

Which one of you studies at the University of Nottingham? Indiefran, maybe?
Gah, some of the comments are just so ridiculous, it's hard to believe there are people out there who genuinely believe these things!
MadWorld I love that Pete Lawson said happy birthday to you! I love him more with every tweet :sleep:
